Police have asked anyone with information about Abdul to come forward (Picture: Metropolitan Police)a
Police are asking the public to help find a 13-year-old boy who has been missing for nearly two weeks.
Abdul, whose surname was not given because of his age, was last seen wearing a black tracksuit and white trainers when he left his family home in Islington, north London, on December 13, the Metropolitan Police said.
He has not been seen or heard from since, despite ‘extensive inquiries’, and the cold weather is increasing concerns for his welfare.
His father said in a statement: ‘As a family, we are deeply concerned for Abdul’s safety and are asking for the public’s help in locating him.’
Officers believe the boy could be in Hounslow, west London, and urged anyone who sees him to contact 999 immediately.
